Tributes

Thank you Peter, Marika, Tessa and Greta for putting together such a beautiful celebration of Diana's life. You all spoke so well and she would have been so proud! I watched the service live with you all via livestream x I often described Diana as my gift from heaven when we first moved to Cambridge, and I feel so privileged our friendship remained and grew from those early days as your neighbours. She was an unending source of parenting knowledge and encouragement, and her laugh was the best! I will forever treasure our birthday coffees and lunches, and other good times, and also the time I got to spend with her when she was housebound due to her illness. Precious and in our hearts always! Her family will always be her pride and joy, carry that in your hearts
